Predicting User Activity Level In Point Processes With Mass Transport Equation.
ADVANCES IN NEURAL INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEMS 30 (NIPS 2017)(2017)
摘要
Point processes are powerful tools to model user activities and have a plethora of applications in social sciences. Predicting user activities based on point processes is a central problem. However, existing works are mostly problem specific, use heuristics, or simplify the stochastic nature of point processes. In this paper, we propose a framework that provides an efficient estimator of the probability mass function of point processes. In particular, we design a key reformulation of the prediction problem, and further derive a differential-difference equation to compute a conditional probability mass function. Our framework is applicable to general point processes and prediction tasks, and achieves superb predictive and efficiency performance in diverse real-world applications compared to the state of the art.
